James Bond news is depressing. It's possible and perhaps even likely that an algorithm could generate ideas like "What if James Bond does parkour?" and "Star Wars is popular - what if we send Bond to space?" but it's more fun when it's one eccentric family calling these shots.

Reminder to not only get into emulation if you haven't but also help your homies set up emulators too. People are scared of emulating and as a result they end up not playing some of the best and most important games ever. Companies won't preserve a god damn thing long term

Women in period pieces are always going on and on about how much they hate corsets. But it would probably be really fucking weird for them not to wear one. Trying to think of the modern day equivalent. A girl who goes on and on about how miserable and uncomfortable underwear is?

The reason I know big tech has become a morass of rudderless managers who can't find a good idea in a bucket labeled "good ideas" is that nobody thought to make Android's ringer status part of its always-on display.

It currently takes 10.5 hours by train to travel from Quebec City to Toronto via Montreal. If Canada proceeds with a high-speed rail system, the trip would take only 4.5 hours. This project is a no-brainer.

finished my first “serious” formalization (i.e. it’s an actual theorem, not a toy example). this is based on an example from the book i’m reading (Mathematics in Lean) but i rewrote the code on my own from scratch to better understand the proof. it was fun! (and took me the whole week)

This is incredibly smart by @ryanhatesthis.bsky.social, a lesson Democrats have to learn fast. There will be no a-ha moment for the electorate. You can't wait around for people to realize how bad it is if they'll invariably wind up blaming the Reverse Vampires. You just have to fight, right now.
